Antebellum Ale House — Restaurant in Weatherford

Antebellum Ale House has been a great addition to the area. They serve liquor, including some local spirits, as well, but the big draw for me is their amazing, and ever-changing assortment of wonderful craft beers on tap. They maintain a beer menu on their website that you can peruse before visiting the bar, to see the details on each available beer at that time.

The Antebellum Ale House was created in an old house, whose property roots can apparently be traced back to around Civil War era. While transformed, it maintains some great atmosphere and charm. There are a few comfy looking lounge areas inside with soft chairs and couches; great for more intimate conversation. This last time I visited, I saw a room with a game table as I passed by that I had not previously noticed. (It had been a while since I visited, but it's possible I just didn't see it before) I enjoy the patio area and tables outside, myself, especially as the weather is getting nicer. Antebellum Ale House is dog friendly, so you may meet a new four-legged friend while enjoying your drink. There are a couple of tvs on the patio, and corn hole is set up near the back of the outdoor area. There are both tables with chairs, and, picnic type tables with benches available. There is smoking allowed outside. I would guess it's not allowed inside, but I'm not certain of that.

Antebellum Ale House does serve some food, if the mood strikes you, but I personally have not tried any, so I can't comment on that. There was also a food truck in the front parking lot on this last visit, but it wasn't open at that time.

Parking can be a little rough. It seems the front parking lot (which was way too cramped and dangerous before) has now been blocked off, except for two handicapped spots. Please leave these spots for the people who need them! There is additional parking around the side/back, or, you can park along the side street next to the outdoor area.

I really enjoy the laid back atmosphere, and the wide range of "good" beers you can enjoy at Antebellum Ale House. It's so much better than a typical bar experience. And, this is not the place to go if Budweiser or Miller Lite, etc., are your go-to beers, unless you're ready to turn over a new leaf! I would highly recommend checking it out, whether you're a local, or just...

My lady and I went there yesterday. I forgot my ID so we went back home to grab it, then came back and weren’t welcomed at all. One of the ladies working told me as a male “I don’t understand your kind” and I asked if I did something to her to offend her she said “no” and didn’t elaborate.

That was awkward and after we ordered some drinks and I went up to the window to order some pretzels and beer cheese, she was talking to her friend and didn’t even acknowledge me, finally came over and I ordered them and she wanted to give me a number and my girlfriend and I were the only people there so I just said holler at me and I’ll come up and grab the food since we were the only ones there to make there lives easier. But she came back to me with “yeah I’m not going to do that” in a super passive tone and kept going on about having a system, I’m like okay! No worries. She could have just said “don’t worry about it we got you” or something nice without tone. I have never been treated this badly at an empty restaurant. First time being there too.

RUDE, PASSIVE REMARKS, TERRIBLE SERVICE :)

1000% dog friendly! You can walk them through the front door, and take the door on the left to the patio. They have a water container on the patio, so you can get your furbaby water at any time. Alfredo loved all the attention and love he received from the staff and customers alike.

Things to know: THE PARKING RIDICULOUS! Take a few minutes to zoom in on your maps and save yourself a few minutes of anger a frustration!! Because the parking is not connected to the building. ALSO, you have to order everything at the bar. But there’s no lines or anything, so you’ll be fine! lol

When we went it was raining, and I was impressed that that a decent amount of the patio was covered, along with side covering so there wasn’t any chance of getting wet. They also had the dart boards in the patios so that’s really kewl. Inside they also have a lot of board games.

It’s just a really kewl place to go and have a few beers. We got the flat bread pizza, which was decent, if flat bread pizza...
